In other words, drugs like ketamine that quickly increase neuroplasticity might be particularly clinically efficient in combination with psychotherapeutic
interventions.
Despite repeated
interventions
by the People’s Bank of China (PBOC), markets remained frenzied for more than a year.
But there is a problem with this account: the PBOC stopped its daily
interventions
in the foreign-exchange market about a year ago.
If it restarted those interventions, presumably it would be attempting to stem the renminbi’s fall by selling foreign-exchange reserves.

together and linking them with other health programs reduces costs further.
The additional cost of maintaining essential newborn health
interventions
at 90% coverage in the 75 countries with the highest mortality is estimated to be a mere $4.1billion per year.

But, because the tool, called CRISPR, can alter entire populations of wild organisms (and thus shared ecosystems), ensuring that these
interventions
are developed responsibly poses an unprecedented challenge for science and society.
As we attempt to realize these tremendous potential benefits, however, we must bear in mind that the effects of gene drive
interventions
will be shared by entire communities.
